Three masked men reportedly carrying two handguns and a rifle confronted the victim. They reportedly shot the man after a short verbal exchange.

The shooting was reported to police at 9:20 p.m.

The victim, identified by his family as Greg Morishima, was taken to Kapi'olani Medical Center at Pali Momi before being transferred to Queen’s, where he was pronounced dead at 11:16 p.m.

Police today were trying to establish a motive for the shooting.

"I don’t know that he had any enemies," the victim’s brother, Gary Morishima, said today. "This kind of tragedy will happen. We’re thinking it might be a case of mistaken identity."

The shooting death is the second tragedy to strike the Morishima family this year. In January the victim’s father, George Y. "Cowboy" Morishima, was found dead off the Judd Trail above Nu'uanu Pali Road after an extensive search.

News of Greg Morishima’s death shocked employees at Aloha Stadium where he and his wife held part-time jobs.

"Greg was a good friend and good worker," said Aloha Stadium parking supervisor Engel Garcia.

Greg Morishima was an assistant parking supervisor and his wife was an usher at the stadium. Gary Morishima said his brother also did side jobs as a carpenter.

Greg Morishima, who has three children ranging from a first-grade son to a 22-year-old daughter, was shot at least three times in the abdomen by three masked men who fled in a sports utility vehicle, police said.

Police also are investigating a shooting early today at a Kailua bar.

A 16-year-old boy and a man, 24, were shot at 12:30 a.m. during a confrontation outside Porky’s Sports Pub at 32 Maluniu Ave. Police said the boy is in critical condition and the man is in guarded condition.
